Nice Hoffman. Your "Colorcaster" model M2021 is the "Commodore" in Mahogany finish, $595. The P2021 is the "Commodore" model in Salem Maple finish, $615. These, along with a Limed Oak model, comprised the price leader sets in Hoffman's color tv line in '56 & '57. As mentioned they correspond to the RCA CTC-5 Super series and use the RCA Deluxe chassis with some Hoffman engineered modifications. Make absolutely sure the cabinet is real wood under the printed Mahogany finish. If it's hardboard you'll never be able to refinish it. RCA's low priced color sets had photo printed finish over real wood on the front only and hardboard top/sides.
Good luck with your project.
